THE NAKED TRUTH .

Falsehood and Truth-the story goes
Upon the beach one summer day
Unrobed and, laying down their Clothes
Bathed in the waters of the bay.
Now plump and roseate was Truth,
With rounded arm and well turned limb,
A countenance aglOw with youth
That God above had given him.
But talsehood' s legs were long and slim,
His bony face wrinllled and old,
His claw. like fingers, poor and thin,
Clutched like a miser's grasping gold;
And Jealous feelings filled his breast
While bathing in the briny bay,
so hidden by a waves white crest,
He watched his chance to slip away.
All lunperceived he scrambled out
And wrapped Truths robes about his form
The ample vestments Mapped about
Like tiuttering sails amid storm.
But ever since he lifts his head,
And swaggers like lusty youth,
While far behind, with falteIing tread,
Abashed, ashamed, comes Naked Truth.

A Collar of Hemp.

When Hon. John McSweeney was In
Detroit a few days since, looking up ev'
idence against Blinkey Morgan and his
pals, he said to Tribune reporter
"This State will never have chance to
convict him. He is going to swing In
Ohio for the murder of Detective HULL
gan. We are going to convict him, you
can rest assured of that fact; and con.
Vlction In my State means a collar OF
hemp, the best remedy in the world for
aggravated cases Of crime. / can we'll
understand that Michigan Is anxious to
get her fingers about his throat, but you
couldn't hang him II you had him here,
You'll have to leave that to US. think

1he Gas well to be Absndoned,

A DEMOCRAT reporter visited the gas
we'll at .. IN. today where he met Con-
tractor Stewart, who told him the direc.
tors Of the company had virtually in
formed him they would be responsible
for no more work done on the
we'll. The drilling ceased several
days ago, when the drill became fast
ened at the bottom, and any attempt to
extrlcate 1t would not be certain of sue
cess, because the salt water, which rises
to the soft shale, crumbled 1t, and
chOked the hole. 1t is the intention Of
Contractor Stewart to cut the rope as
low down as possible, and abandon all
further efforts at securing gas from
this well.

PANCAKE ON A BED OF PAIN

PANCAKE On A BED PAIN
Going into the wards one morning, Rachel
found that Lieut. Joseph Pancake had been
brought in suffering from what the surgeon
pronounced to be "febrile symptoms of a
mild type, from which he will no doubt re-
cover in a few days, with rest, quiet and
proper food"
1t is possibly worth while to note the coin
cidence that these symptoms developed with
unexpected suddenness in the midst of earnest
preparations by the Army of the Cumber-
land, for terrible grapple at Perryville with
the Confederate army of the Tennessee.
Pancake recognized Rachel at once, much
to her embarrassment, for her pride WINGED
at playing the role of nurse before an ac-
quaintance, especially when that acquaint-
ance was her fathers hired man, whom she
knew too well to esteem highly.
40, Miss Rachel" he groaned, as she came
to his cot in response to his earnest call,
"Im SO glad to see you, for Pm the sckest
man that ever came into this hospital.
Nothin' but the best o. care1l carry me
through, and know you'll give it to me for
the sake of old times" and Joseph's face ex-
pressed to his comrades the idea that there
had been time when his relations with her
had been exceedingly tender.

EXERCISE FOR THE FACE.
The Great Law of beauty Is Use-Gyni-
nastic Directions.

The Great Law of Beauty Is Use-Gyn,-
nastic Directions.
An know that systematic exercise of the
muscular system develops and invigorates
it. Why not apply tho Same rules to the
face that are salutary for tho rest Of the
body? Tho great law of beauty is use. If
ono wants well rounded and shapely arm
every sort of motion is practised that will
bring its dclicacy Of muscle, tendon, and
nerve into play; it is not left to hang helpless
at tho side until it has become rigid and
attenuated But nothing is done for the ex-
ercises Of the face although tho samo rule
would hold good there as well. After the
first roundncss of youth is gone its lines are
apt to become SGT and angular. All the soft
contour Of chin and cheek is lost, and hard,
grim angles or cumbering fat take it's
place. This need not and should not be.
II the muscles Of the cheeks, chin, throat
and neck are exercised and the fresh blood
drawn to them the shrunken parts will be
gradually restored to live, firm consist
ency, and a semblance at least of youth Sc
cured. M
This face exercise should be systematic
and persistent as well as intelligently ap-
piled. Find where tho muscles are either
by chart or by study at mirror. Then
treat them to gentle massage on the plan
Of resistance being careful not to over
work or injure them. Any desired muscles
Of the face may be found by assuming va
rious intense expressions of countenance,
rage, merriment wonder, grief surprise.
Cooke, the actor, developed his snarling
muscles to an astonishing degree. The
comedian strengthens and perfects his
laughing muscles. When any special mus
Gle has been located and defined, work upon
it with the hand judiciously until it is tired;
delightful glow will follow.
Train the muscles of the neck and chest
by any approved gymnastic directions. It
is surprising what an altered look defect
i've figure will assume after few months Of
systematic discipline. Not only will the
contour improve, but the complexion with
it, provided the skin has special hygienicl
care. A clear, soft, we'll conditioned skin
may not be wholly the result of external
treatment, yet that counts for good deal.
Back of it, of course, must be the general
health-what is eaten and drunk and what
avoided. Chicago News.
